CC3235SF: WPA3 Enterprise security

Part Number: CC3235SF


Hi Team,

A customer would like to configure WPA3 enterprise mode. I found no examples showing how. In the SDK, there is a "SL_WLAN_SEC_TYPE_WPA_ENT", can this be used for WPA3 enterprise or for WPA ent, WPA2 ent?

Can you please help?

Regards,

Marvin

  • Hi,

    Yes, Enterprise security at CC3235 can be used with WPA/WPA2/WPA3. CC3235 are certified by WiFi alliance for such usage.

    But your customer should be aware that CC3235 supports for EAP security TLS 1.0 only. That means CC3235 is not possible to use at many companies where is TLS 1.0 not allowed due to strict security policy (and these are almost all big corporations).

  • Hi Marvin,

    Just set SL_WLAN_SEC_TYPE_WPA_ENT at SlWlanSecParams_t structure and it should work with WPA3-EAP. I have tested WPA3-EAP with AP with OpenWRT and it worked well. Only issue which I remember with WPA3-EAP was that network scan by sl_WlanGetNetworkList() returned some unusual flags.

    WPA3 support was added into CC3220 / CC3235 by ServicePack. From this reason need to be ServicePack uploaded into CC32xx. Recommanded is to use latest SP.
